Caray, Caray!

[Our best to you, JudyB!   A speedy recovery and return to the patio!]

Claudio's big lie continues...he arrives back to tell Teresa that he was appointed after all.  She's thrilled.  But Constanza isn't fooled one bit and lets the old drunk know what she thinks of him, cuz truth be told, she's hated him ever since he married her mother!

Regina still won't give Jose Jose "el si'" to be her boyfriend again...FF>>

Vicente comes over t Gustavo's garage to borrow his car.  Mario's there and Chente stops to thank him for having invited the food critic to their opening.  Mario offers Chente parts on a pay as you can proposition without Adrian's knowing anything about it to help out but Chente refuses.

Adrian calls Nata to plan a party for Regina's upcoming birthday and to get his lawyer to help reopen her restaurant for her--all while La Vulga de Olga is trying to seduce him.  (And it's back to the china bowl at the next commercial!)

At the same time, the food critic Chef arrives at Nata's door.  He's brought somebody with him.  It's one of the largest entrepreneurs in all of Mexico.  After she thanks him for the wonderful review on the radio, he introduces her to the businessman who wishes to make her an offer to market her tortillas?

Clod admits he was denied anything and asks Connie to help him with her financial influence to get him some sort of governmental post.  She agrees but he's got to first agree to help her take Andrea's baby since it's really her baby, after all!

Back at Adi's, La Vulga complains to Adrian that none of their plans has m anaged to separate Chente and Nata.  He proposes a surefire scheme to make Chente jealous so he'll fall into another woman's clutches.  Olga doesn't like that and wants to be the lucky lady of the rebound.

Chente and Omar go to the city clerk's office and pay their fines but the crooked official informs them they must still wait 4 months till the restaurant can open again.  They head back home and the official reports back to Adi.  Adi says he wants Nata so distraught that she's on her knees begging him to help her get the restaurant reopened.

Regi and Jose Jose make up.  They're going steady again.  FF>>

Gustavo and Chole offer to plan a quinceanera for Regi's 15th birthday and she agrees.  JJ will be her chamberlin.

Adi hands Vulga a bottle of the same drug Elias had given to Omi at the bachelor party.  A few drops and Chente will be at her feet doing whatever she wants.

With the other chef's guidance, Nata makes a deal to create 150 menu's in two days' time.  (I am not sure that's what it means, but that's literally what I heard.)  Chente returns home with the bad news about the restaurant and she gives him the good news about the agreement to make food for the entrepreneur.  The whole group of family and friends will help her prepare it all.  The neighborhood is asked to loan the ingredients against the money she'll bring in eventually for this deal and they agree.  They'll divide up into two groups. They begin the preparations.

That night, Simba reports back to Adi all the assaults and robberies he and his posse have been carrying out in the neighborhood.  Adi hands him a gun and tells him what he wants to be done with it.  

The next day, Andrea, Omi, Magos, J2, and Tere are chatting about the upcoming quinceanera that Chole and Tavo are planning.  Andi, who is actually grating onions/cheese? (Quick--somebody! Take a picture for posterity!) is opposed to something so old-fashioned and low class.  Magos corrects her and says they'll have it because it is a grand tradition.  

In Chole's kitchen, Vulga drags in and she and Chole get sick at the smell of the sausage Juanga's using.  Kimberly smells it and says it's just fine, and that Chole's pregnancy is making her feel ill.  Just then Tavo enters the room and gets angry at the news.  He storms out of the kitchen.  Nobody understands why since they've been talking about adoption just about forever.  

Meanwhile, on their way back from the market, Chente and Nata are assaulted at gunpoint.  Suddenly and out of nowhere we must note, there is Adi making like he's mighty mouse come to save the day just as Chente is knocked cold by one of the gangbangers with a bat.  The guy with the gun shoots Adi in the shoulder and Adi passes out on the ground.  Nata is beside herself.  She races over to Adrian's side and then to Chente's and back to Adi's.  "--Don't die, Adrian!!" (From a shoulder wound???)

Back at Chole's, Kimberly suggests Vulga must be preggers also if she's nauseous and tired in the mornings.  She did get nauseated at the smell of that sausage earlier.  Vulga says it would mean it was the rapist's parting gift.  Kimberly says, "Yeah, he would have left you a souvenir."  

At the garage, Tavo screams and yells at Tina for allowing the clutter on the floor.  If it is Simba's, then he's fired.  Mario walks in and sees his friend all up in arms.  They head up to his office for a chat.  Tavo says he learned that Chole's pregnant but since he took a sterility test years ago and was told he was sterile, it must mean Chole's been with another man and that man is without a doubt Juanga!!!  He breaks down and cries.  Mario insists that doctors do make mistakes.  (Viewerville screams back at the screen that bribes seem to go a long way in Mexico...)

Chente tells Nata that he will go with Adi to the hospital so she can finish her menus.  She agrees.  They also agree not to inform the girls about this until after that's been finished and they know how Adrian's getting along.

At school, Hair Boy tells Regi that a quinceanera is really OUT.  Not cool.  She doesn't care because her uncle wants to do it for her and she likes the idea.  She tells him she and JJ are back together again and he'll be her chamberlin.  She asks him to be one also.  He says okay and she then asks him to try to be J2P2's friend since he is all alone there.  For Regi's sake he says he will do it.

Mario complains a bit later to Tina about Juanga's playboy attitude.  He doesn't want Tina hurt.  She says she doesn't care about Juanga.  She's really in love with Mario and Mario is acting jealous.  She insists Mario's in love with her also.  He gives in and the two begin to kiss.
